Talented Judit Barnai (189-F/C-94) had a great game in the last round for ELTE-BEAC and that's her to receive a Eurobasket.com Player of the Week award for round 9.The 22-year old power forward had a double-double of 20 points and fifteen rebounds, while her team crushed, the league's bottom-ranked team MTK (#10, 0-8) with 16-point margin 70-54. The game was not the highest importance and did not have significant influence on top of the standings. ELTE-BEAC maintains the 9th position in Hungarian A Division. The season is still in it's early stage, so the team may have a chance to improve their current position in the standings. They lost 7 games and had just one victory. It's Barnai's second year at ELTE-BEAC and it's hard to imagine this team without her. Barnai has impressive league stats. She is in league's top in rebounds (3rd best: 9.4rpg) and averages solid 2.0bpg and 56.1% FGP.

The second most remarkable performance in last round's games was young Slovenian center Eva Lisec (192-C-95) of Atomeromu. Lisec impressed basketball fans with 18 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists. Of course she led Atomeromu to another comfortable win outscoring PINKK-Pecsi (#11, 0-8) 72-52. Atomeromu's 3rd position in the standings has not changed. Her team's 6-2 record is not bad at all. Lisec is a newcomer at Atomeromu and it seems she did not have too much trouble to become one of team's leaders. She belongs to the best scorers in the league with 15.3ppg (#5). She also registered 8.0 boards per game.

The third best performed player last round was American Cyesha Goree (190-F-93, agency: Interperformances) of second-ranked UNI Gyor. Goree scored 16 points and grabbed eleven rebounds (!!!). She was a key player of UNI Gyor, leading her team to a 89-69 easy win against the lower-ranked Cegledi EKK (#7, 5-4). UNI Gyor needs these victories very badly if they think about taking over top position in the standings. Their record at this point is 7 victories and 2 lost games. Goree has a great season in Hungary. After only 9 games, she made it on the list of the league's leaders in rebounds with 8.1rpg (5th best).

The Player of the week is chosen based on efficiency calculation, but also including game result, importance of the game, if played recorded double-double/triple-double, etc.The efficiency formula is a combination of various formulas used by different basketball organizations/leagues. We got involved many basketball scouts and journalists to assure it's accuracy.The formula: 1.5*PTS + 3* (REB+AST+ST+BL-TO) - 2*BSAG - 4*PF + 3*PFRV + 4* (2FGPM+3FGPM) + 1.5*FTM - 3* (2FGPA-2FGPM) - 3* (3FGPA-3FGPM) - (FTA-FTM)
